NuWave PIC Pro

Yes, induction cooking requires cookware with a magnetic base, such as cast iron or magnetic stainless steel. If a magnet sticks firmly to the bottom of your pot or pan, it will work with the Nuwave PIC Pro.

The digital control panel allows you to adjust the temperature in precise 5-degree increments. This level of control is particularly useful for delicate tasks like tempering chocolate or maintaining a gentle simmer for sauces.

While you should never leave cooking appliances completely unattended, the unit features automatic pan detection. It will cease operation immediately once the cookware is removed from the surface, adding a significant layer of safety.

It is an excellent solution for small kitchens, dorms, or as an auxiliary burner for entertaining. However, keep in mind it is a single-burner unit, so it is best suited for supplemental cooking rather than replacing a full-sized range.

Because the surface itself does not get as hot as a traditional electric coil, spills are less likely to bake on. Once the unit has cooled completely, you can simply wipe it down with a damp cloth or a non-abrasive cleaner designed for ceramic glass.
